Don Plok – Camino de Cintura Vol. 1 ft. Baja Frequencia, Macha Kiddo & Rafael Aragon

Don Plok’s new album is called ‘Camino de Cintura’ and is presented in two volumes: day and night, yin and yang, on and off, this work represents opposites, different moods, different representations of a personality through the musical creativity and sound multiplicity of the artist.

About Camino de Cintura

Two EPs of 5 tracks each that function as the two facets of the same work, and that cover the different bifurcations in the production process of the album, one with calmer yet catchy sounds and the other more nocturnal and frenetic.

‘The process was paused several times for tours, and each time we picked up the musical mood evolved, so there are different moods and genres, representing different interests and musical pursuits. The first tracks are very much influenced by the music I like to listen to, and the last ones by what I like to play in a club’ – says Don Plok regarding the two volumes in which the album is presented.

The tracks on Vol. 1 go through different stages, such as tranquillity, creativity, enthusiasm, eclecticism, mystery, while those on Vol. 2 go through other emotions, such as euphoria, wildness, stimulation, excitement and madness.

Camino de cintura, is the route that borders the city of Buenos Aires. It represents the diversity of the peripheries, as well as the proximity and connection between apparently distant points. The album is a journey along the creative route of the multifaceted Argentinean producer, in two instalments, which offer that variable vision of a chameleon-like artist who knows how to adapt to the different realities of his day-to-day life as a DJ, producer and communicator of musical language through the soundsystem culture and raver ‘bonaerense’.

‘Camino de Cintura is a road close to my house, it crosses the entire Buenos Aires suburbs but from the depths of the city. The wide route represents the diversity that can be found on this road, telling a story that pays homage to the different types of suburbs and imaginaries’ – says Pablo Carpignano aka Don Plok.

The second release will be available on platforms on Friday 14 June, and consists of 5 tracks as well and includes collaborations with more guest artists. It features a higher BPM sound, closer to dancefloor.

The album was artistically produced together with Manuel Schaller (Sexteto Irreal, Axel Krygier, Orquesta Hypnofón, Dick el Demasiado, Avant Press) in his Buenos Aires studio Oídos Contentos.
